COMEX REPORT
· US private sector adds 200,000 jobs in July
· US second quarter GDP revised higher
· US second quarter GDP at 1.70% while US first quarter GDP revised down to 1.10% from 1.70%
· US consumer spending rose at 1.80% in second quarter
The Federal Reserve has kept the markets in limbo and has said nothing about tapering in September. The Federal Reserve said persistently that low inflation could hamper the economic expansion and they pledged to keep buying $85 billion in bonds every month. “The committee recognizes that inflation persistently below its 2 percent objective could pose risks to economic performance, but it anticipates that inflation will move back toward its objective over the medium term,” the Federal Open Market Committee said today after a two-day meeting in Washington. Growth will “pick up from its recent pace.” Chairman Ben S. Bernanke and his colleagues cited “further improvements” in the labor market, while saying economic growth was “modest” and not indicating the timing for a trim to bond purchases. They are debating whether the economy is strong enough to warrant scaling back stimulus even as the jobless rate persists at 7.6 percent and inflation through May was well below their longer-run target of 2 percent.
Our View: Incoming US economic numbers suggest that US economic growth is sustainable and it can withstand tapering. Tapering will happen at the September federal reserve meeting but the quantum of tapering is unknown and inestimable.
Today
All eyes will now be on the US July nonfarm payrolls tomorrow. A good number can result in gold and silver falling. Till tomorrow we prefer a buy on sharp dips strategy with a stop loss below $1284 and $18.75
We prefer to go long in gold and silver on any two percent fall.
